## Description

Holiday charters from Amsterdam and Vienna share the summer apron with year-round island hops at Karpathos Island National Airport (IATA: AOK, ICAO: LGKP), at the southern tip of the Dodecanese island between Crete and Rhodes. Olympic Air, with around 16 weekly departures, and Sky Express serve Athens, Rhodes and Kasos all year; the airport handled roughly 289,000 passengers in 2024. No air cargo is processed here – it is purely a passenger and tourism field. Greece's cargo hub is Athens (ATH), about 400 km away; consignments for the island move as belly freight or by ferry.
